radSV: Radiation pattern for SV waves

Description

calculate the radiation patterns for SV waves

Usage

radSV(del, phiS, lam, ichi, phi)

Arguments

del
degrees, angle
phiS
degrees,angle
lam
degrees, angle
ichi
degrees, take off angle
phi
degrees, take off azimuth

Value

  • Amplitude of the SV wave

Details

Given a focal mechanism strike-dip-rake and a given incident angle (take-off angle) and azimuth, return the SV amplitude

Examples

Run this code
phiS=65
del=25
lam=13
x = seq(-1, 1, 0.01)
y = x

X = matrix(rep(x, length(y)), nrow= length(x))
Y = t(X)
RAD2DEG = 180/pi
p = RAD2DEG*(pi/2 -atan2(Y, X))
p[p<0] = p[p<0] + 360

R = sqrt(X^2+Y^2)
R[R>1] = NaN
dip =RAD2DEG*2*asin(R/sqrt(2))

###  Calculate the radiation pattern
G = radSV(del, phiS, lam, dip, p)

###  plot values
image(x,y,G, asp=1)
